Hey, if you're the passenger, I'm pretty sure you don't give a hoot about landing in the TDZ on a long runway and would rather get down softly.
Obviously its not proper piloting but its great for the PAX =)
No. The pax on the Air France A340 that overshot in Toronto were clapping after touchdown way too far down the runway, and then it rolled off the end
and into the ditch. You NEVER do something risky for the sake of trying to make the passengers happy with your landing. Here's a recent topic on the
matter on airliners.net.

The user "SlamClick" is a retired airline pilot BTW
